The apartment is very nice and modern. You cannot go wrong with the villas. Gread for avoiding the crowded standard hotels. The only complaint I would have is that the beach is not very comfty, not easy to bathe. The breakfast here is fine but not worth it's price and the crowd is almost overwhelming.

We stayed in a 6 person villa. After initially booking a 4 person villa we requested a change upon arrival as the 4 person villa is very small and did not give us enough space for a family of 4 with children aged 9 and 12. The villa itself is quite nice but not as good as it looks in...

For the third consecutive year we stayed at the Melia Istrian Villas – this year at a Superior West Villa.
In general the location is great, the way they built the Houses and the peace you find here is in my opinion unique in Croatia (and Istria) but I believe also in Europe for the dimension of the Resort. Service...

We were not sure what to expect due to the mixed reviews. But all expectations have been exceeded. So firstly the minor Improvements, the hair dryer could do with an upgrade as the handle got hot. The shower screen could do with a bottom seal to stop water leaking finally if you use the sofa bed a blind in the...

For us it was not a perfect place. Too many people, loud music in the evenings (I guess coming from organized entertainment). It is a small holiday town where stop can find apartment houses and villas. If you have villa with sea view then it is ok, others you have to carefully book not to have swimming pool or a...

Melia Istrian Villas are perfect for a family holiday. We had a villa with a seaview and the whole coastline in that area is stunning. There are loads of activities for the kids. Ours are 7 and 9 and they loved the inflatables in the Laguna, the water sports and pedalos and snorkelling in the sea!
We hired bikes and...

The nearest airport is Pula, 90 km of a very good, new, modern highway, but you have to pay, because it is a paid road.
